A good day to visit the Art Gallery

Well, the weather is bleh today. It would have been a perfect day to visit the Art Gallery of Ontario. Except that it is closed for renovation.

As was ours over the summer. We used to tape all the kids' art onto the cabinets we had along the kitchen wall. It was a great place to put all the projects as they came home. We didn't like the starkness of the very plain, white cabinetry, so the flashes of colour that we posted added some life to the room. But also some clutter.

In our new kitchen, there is really only one part of the island that little G uses to tape up her artwork. L hasn't brought any major masterpieces home as yet, but I am impressed with his drawing that accompanies his little news items in his homework booklets.

I don't yet know where to display these more recent creations, but I can at least post them here for now. And also to help distract Her Bad Mother from the miseries of morning sickness; after all, kids' art must certainly be good for the nauseous soul."Mommy's Cake" by little G. No, her mommy isn't the best baker.

Thanks Josie, and thanks for stopping by. I have a couple of boxes overflowing with mini-Picassos. I can't bring myself to toss anything!Kellan, that is a great idea to frame them for their rooms! Thanks for the tip my friend!
